He Qiuqiu listened to all the slander and completely exploded. Gritting her teeth, she roared, “Big shot my ass! That car is mine, got it?”
“A bunch of narrow-minded idiots. Just because you don’t have something means no one else can?”
“I really worry for your parents. You spend all day at school don’t you have anything better to do than chew on half-baked gossip?”
“What rank did you get in your exams? Did you win a scholarship? Or are some of you even failing courses?”
At that, a few people in the crowd actually shrank back a little.
But He Qiuqiu had always kept a low profile at school, so not many students recognized her.
And since she was just one girl against many, very few people shut up. On the contrary, more and more gathered to watch the drama.
The commotion didn’t escape Shi Sheng’s notice. She had just stepped out of the teaching building when a familiar voice drilled into her ears. Looking up, she saw a large crowd gathered in that direction.
She would recognize He Qiuqiu’s voice anywhere.
But hadn’t she gone out to run errands? Why was she here arguing with students?
Shi Sheng frowned slightly and immediately walked over.
She had barely stopped when she heard He Qiuqiu shout that resounding “my ass.”
The corner of her mouth twitched as she stepped into the crowd.
Someone suddenly shouted, “Shi Sheng is here!”
The noisy argument instantly fell silent.
He Qiuqiu’s first reaction was to check Shi Sheng’s expression. After a light cough, she casually pulled down the sleeves she had just rolled up.
She knew Shi Sheng didn’t really care about this kind of thing, but instinctively she still didn’t want her to see such a messy scene.
After all, anyone would feel uncomfortable hearing so many ugly insults about themselves.
The other boys and girls who had been arguing also shut their mouths awkwardly, their eyes darting around.
They had already known from the photos that the new junior was beautiful, but none of them had expected her to be this stunning in person. Those few photos hadn’t even captured one-tenth of her real beauty.
There were plenty of pretty girls these days, but it was rare to find someone whose bone structure and features were both this flawless.
She carried a lazy, languid aura clearly looking at everyone around her, yet as if not a single person was truly in her eyes.
The most striking thing was her eyes. Not round or sweet, but slightly elongated. There wasn’t a trace of flirtation in them. Her pupils were dark and deep, impossible to read. A small tear mole at the corner of her eye softened the oppressive sharpness just a little.
And the moment she lifted her gaze, that lazy air vanished completely.
In its place was arrogance and brilliance like a sword freshly drawn from its sheath, sharp enough to cut anyone who came too close.
Everyone was stunned speechless by Shi Sheng’s beauty when someone in the crowd suddenly called out, “Junior Shi Sheng, is what the forum says true? Are you really the one who stole someone else’s life for eighteen years? Why don’t you explain the truth to everyone?”
Shi Sheng tilted her head slightly toward the voice. Just one light glance was enough to silence the boy who had spoken.
“First, whether I maliciously occupied someone else’s life, or whether the Shi family adopted me to shield their biological daughter from misfortune if you have connections, feel free to ask President Shi yourself.”
“Second, don’t call me junior. I’ve already passed the grade-skipping exam.”
“As for being kept by a rich man heh. You’re not rich men anyway. Why are you so anxious?”
The mocking snort carried obvious contempt, making the faces of the onlooking students flush red.
If they hadn’t seen her in person, that would be one thing. But now, looking at her distant, untouchable face kept by a rich man? With looks like hers, she could dominate the entertainment industry. Why would she need to rely on anyone?
Not to mention, she wasn’t Junior Shi Sheng anymore now she was Senior Shi Sheng. Top scorer on the college entrance exam, and she’d skipped two grades right after enrollment.
Who could possibly pull that off?
From the moment Shi Sheng appeared, He Qiuqiu hadn’t gotten a word in. But she stood there like a proud peacock about to fan its tail.
With a toss of her head, she said, “Shengsheng, let’s go. Arguing with them is a waste of time. I really don’t know how Huada University admits students how did people this narrow-minded and herd-thinking even get in? Tsk, tsk…”
Everyone present flushed red at her words. One boy stepped forward.
“Senior Shi Sheng, we were wrong just now. We attacked you verbally without clarifying the truth. Don’t worry we’ll definitely give you an explanation.”
Unlike seasoned adults in society, students were still relatively simple-minded. Hearing all this now, they felt too ashamed to show their faces. Their ugly thoughts earlier felt deeply unfair to her.
They were students of Huada University. How could they harbor such malice toward a girl based on an unverified forum post?
Add in the embarrassment of being slapped in the face with the truth awkwardness and shame mixed together, and all their emotions instantly turned toward the true culprit of the whole matter
The person who had made the post.
Shi Sheng didn’t care how things would develop afterward, but He Qiuqiu couldn’t swallow this insult.
Who else could have written such a detailed post besides those three members of the Shi family?
The couple probably wouldn’t bother personally posting on the school forum, so that left only one person.
After returning to the small courtyard, He Qiuqiu sat down at her computer and started typing away.
There were skilled computer science students at Huada University, but they were far from her level.
An entire afternoon had passed, and the poster still hadn’t been identified.
He Qiuqiu sneered. “Don’t think being anonymous means you’re safe.”
When she finally traced the mastermind, she nearly ground her teeth to dust.
So it really was you, you little white lotus. Pulling this disgusting stunt? Then you can have a taste of it yourself!
Five minutes later, Huada University’s forum exploded.
Countless students stared in shock at the newly posted thread.
It completely exposed the anonymous poster’s information.
Even things she had done since childhood bullying, dating in elementary school, publicly yelling at her parents were laid out one by one in the forum.
Shi Yiyan instantly became famous at Huada University. Explosively famous.
As more people paid attention, someone suddenly realized that Shi Yiyan’s college entrance exam score hadn’t even met Huada University’s requirements yet her name was on the freshman list.
What more was there to say? There had to be some shady deal behind it.
The students dug deeper and deeper, getting more obsessed by the minute. At the center of the storm, Shi Yiyan was nearly biting her teeth to pieces.
“Ah!!!”
She screamed in rage and swept all the cosmetics off her dressing table, smashing them to the floor.
She had originally opened her phone to see how many people were cursing Shi Sheng, but the moment she logged into the forum, she froze.
Why was her name plastered all over it?
Just then, there was a knock at the door.
“Miss, is something wrong? Do you need my help?”
Shi Yiyan was already furious. What good mood could she possibly have for a servant? She immediately lashed out, “Get lost! It’s none of your business!”
Outside the door, Aunt Wang curled her lips silently, shook her head, and turned to leave.
This newly arrived young lady might be the Shi family’s biological daughter, but compared to the former Miss Sheng, she was far inferior.
What kind of rich young heiress acted like this?
She was more like a shrew from the streets.
